You'll have a bunch of people going "Blueberries are the cutest fruit ever." and a bunch of people going "The blueberry trend is the worst thing to happen here at EoFF." and a bunch of people going "WILL YOU PLEASE SHUT THE smurf UP ABOUT THE 'BLUEBERRY BANDWAGON' IT IS A NICE FRUIT AND I HAPPEN TO LIKE IT."

You mean like Jiaoberry liked strawberries and now hates to admit it?! I am sure there are others in this dire strait as well!

:kaolaugh:

I regularly search "strawberry" and "strawberries," and I'm really excited when I read strawberry posts by other people!

Yuejiao (Jojo) + Strawberry (Strawbee) = Jiaoberry. It is actually an amazing nickname and better than the twerp deserves.

I started caring when I joined, when I realized the party had been going for the better part of a whole year before I showed up. I can't even imagine what it's like for you newbies.

I have no idea what you should do.

Wait, here is an idea, type in another font.

Or pretend you have multiple personality disorder. Whichever works out best for you :p

Yes, I realize that jiaoberry is a clever portmanteau, but I was referencing strawbee in response to comment she made about how strawbee wasn't her thing anymore and that she was slightly embarassed by it? I don't remember.

My gimmick is to keep saying I'm awesome and popular until it just kinda happens.

It's going well. :D

Well, she definitely should be embarrassed, but she's still using that stupid name at Neskaya.

You could go with something simple and obvious, which is go, "KWEH!" or "KWARL!" after every sentence. :choc: Kinda like how moogles say, "Kupo!" after everything they say.

Everyone at least has something that separates them from most people. Like your obsession with anime, anime girls, and shmups.

For me, it'd definitely be my secrecy. After being here for 3 years, the majority of EoFF still doesn't even know my real name, where I live, or what my face looks like (those Internet Safety pamphlets are to blame for that, even though I'm too old to be reading those).

That sure is mysterious!

Wow. Three years.

Hey man, if you try too hard to force yourself to have a gimmick, it's definitely going to start getting annoying! Just go with the flow, homeskillet!
